Detailed Implementation

[0071] Embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, it should be understood that these descriptions are exemplary only and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concepts of the present disclosure.

[0072] The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit this disclosure. The terms “comprising,” “including,” etc., as used herein indicate the presence of the stated features, steps, operations, and / or components, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, steps, operations, or components.

[0073] All terms used herein (including technical and scientific terms) have the meanings commonly understood by those skilled in the art, unless otherwise defined. It should be noted that the terms used herein are to be interpreted in a manner consistent with the context of this specification, and not in an idealized or overly rigid way.

[0074] Electronic devices such as desktop computers include a display screen and a chassis. The chassis is used to house and secure various electronic components of the desktop computer, including the motherboard, processor, memory card, hard drive, etc. In existing technologies, chassis primarily serve to house and secure these electronic components, and their function is relatively simple.

[0075] This disclosure provides a chassis with a display module mounted on it. Users can interact with the display module via voice, clicks, or input, enabling the module to display various information requested by the user. The display module can display weather forecasts, maps, news, and other information, and can also play videos and audio.

[0076] Figure 1 This schematically illustrates a view of a portion of a display module housed within a housing according to an embodiment of the present disclosure; Figure 2 This schematically illustrates a display unit of a display module according to an embodiment of the present disclosure attached to the outer wall of a housing; Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the internal structure of a chassis according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown.

[0077] In embodiments of this disclosure, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the chassis includes a housing 10 and a display module 20. The housing 10 has an accommodating space. The display module 20 is movably disposed within the housing 10 and can switch between a first state and a second state. In the first state, at least a portion of the display module 20 is housed within the accommodating space; in the second state, at least a portion of the display module 20 is located outside the housing 10 and can switch between a first position posture and a second position posture, the first position posture being different from the second position posture.

[0078] Optionally, the enclosure 10 is a rectangular enclosure with an internal space for storing electronic components such as storage modules and heat dissipation modules. The enclosure 10 includes a top wall, a bottom wall, and four side walls connecting the top and bottom walls. It is understood that the enclosure 10 may also be irregularly shaped.

[0079] The display module 20 is movably disposed on the housing 10, and can be disposed on any of the top wall and four side walls of the housing 10. The display module 20 can be connected to the housing 10 by magnetic attraction, snap-fit, sliding, or other means. The display module 20 includes a display unit and a connecting component, which is used to movably connect the display unit to the housing 10.

[0080] The display module 20 can switch between a first state and a second state by applying external force to it. The first state and the second state are mainly used to characterize changes in the position and function of the display module 20.

[0081] In the first state, at least a portion of the display module 20 is located within the accommodating space, and the display module 20 is in a non-display state; in the second state, at least a portion of the display module 20 is located outside the housing 10, and the display module 20 is able to be in a display state, allowing the user to interact with the display module 20, and the display module 20 can display corresponding information according to the user's needs.

[0082] In some embodiments, the housing 10 is rectangular in shape and has a length direction, a width direction, and a height direction. The two sidewalls located in the width direction are defined as the first sidewall 11 and the third sidewall, and the two sidewalls located in the length direction are defined as the second sidewall 12 and the fourth sidewall. The display module 20 can be disposed on the first sidewall 11 or the third sidewall, or it can be disposed on the second sidewall 12 and the fourth sidewall. For ease of description, the following description uses the example of the display module 20 being disposed on the first sidewall 11. The first sidewall 11 is also provided with buttons, a USB interface, an audio interface, etc., and the electronic device can be turned on or off by pressing the buttons. An external force can be applied to the display module 20, allowing it to move towards the outside or inside of the housing 10.

[0083] For example, applying a pulling force to the display module 20 causes the display unit of the display module 20 to move towards the outside of the housing 10. When the display unit is completely outside the housing 10, the display module 20 is in a second state. In the second state, the display unit can switch between a first position and a second position. The first position can be a position where the display unit is perpendicular to the first side wall 11 of the housing 10, and the second position can be a position where the display unit is parallel to the first side wall 11 of the housing 10. In the second state, a rotation or turning motion can be applied to the display unit to switch it from the first position to the second position. Depending on the placement of the housing, the first side wall 11 of the housing usually faces the user, and the display unit switches to the second position, making it convenient for the user to view the information displayed on the display unit. The display unit is located outside the housing 10 and is in display mode.

[0084] For example, when it is necessary to house the display unit inside the housing 10, a rotation or turning motion is applied to the display unit, causing it to switch from a second position to a first position. Then, a pushing force is applied to the display unit, causing the display module 20 to move inward toward the housing 10 until the display unit is in place, at which point part or all of the display module 20 is housed within the receiving space. With the display module 20 housed within the receiving space, the display unit is in a non-display state.

[0085] In the first state, part or all of the display module 20 can be housed in the housing 10 in a first position posture, occupying little space in the width direction of the housing 10, which facilitates flexible placement of the display module 20 on the housing 10. At the same time, the display module 20 is housed in the accommodating space, which effectively protects the display module 20. In the second state, the display module 20 can be switched to a second position posture, which makes it convenient for users to view the display information on the display unit.

[0086] In this embodiment, the chassis includes a housing 10 and a display module 20 movably mounted on the housing 10, which improves the performance of the chassis. In the first state, the display module 20 can be stored in the housing space of the housing 10 in a first position posture. In the second state, the display module 20 can be switched to a second position posture. This is not only conducive to flexibly setting the display module 20 on the housing 10 and facilitating the storage of the display module 20, but also makes it convenient for users to view the display information on the display module 20, which is beneficial to the user's comfort.

[0087] Figure 4 This illustration schematically shows a structural diagram of a display module according to an embodiment of the present disclosure; Figure 5 An exploded view schematically illustrates a display module according to an embodiment of the present disclosure; Figure 6A A schematic diagram illustrating a display module in a retracted state according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 6B The diagram illustrates a display unit moving a certain distance toward the outside of the housing according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, with the moving part located at a first extreme position; Figure 6C A schematic diagram illustrating the moving part in a second extreme position according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 6D The diagram illustrates a display unit rotating from a first position to a second position according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 6E This schematically illustrates a display unit rotated to a second position according to an embodiment of the present disclosure; Figure 6F A schematic diagram illustrating the moving part in the third extreme position according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 6C , Figure 6D , Figure 6E and Figure 6F In the middle, the thick black lines represent the length of the elastic connector when it is stretched.

[0088] In embodiments of this disclosure, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6A and Figure 6B As shown, the housing 10 has a through hole. The display module 20 includes a support component 21, a display unit 23, and a connector 22. The support component 21 is connected to the housing 10. The display unit 23 is movably disposed on the support component 21 and can move relative to the through hole. One end of the connector 22 is movably connected to the display unit 23, and the other end of the connector 22 is detachably connected to the support component 21.

[0089] In the second state, when the connector 22 and the support assembly 21 are connected, the display unit 23 can switch between a first position and a second position, with the direction of the display unit 23 in the first position intersecting the direction of the second position. In the first state, when the connector 22 and the support assembly 21 are separated, the display unit 23 can be housed within the receiving space.

[0090] For example, the housing 10 has a support frame inside, and the support assembly 21 can be installed on the support frame by snap-fit. The support assembly 21 is used to support the display unit 23 and the connector 22. A through hole is provided on the first side wall 11 of the housing 10. The size of the through hole is adapted to the cross-sectional size of the display unit 23, so that the display unit 23 can move smoothly along the extension direction of the through hole. Figure 2 As shown, the through hole can be located at the bottom of the first sidewall 11 and close to the second sidewall 12.

[0091] The display unit 23 has a display screen on one side, and the connector 22 can be disposed on the side of the display unit 23 opposite to the display screen. The length of the connector 22 is less than the length of the display unit 23, and the width of the connector 22 is less than the width of the display unit 23.

[0092] One end of the connector 22 is movably connected to the display unit 23, which can switch between a first position and a second position through rotation or turning movements. The other end of the connector 22 is detachably connected to the support assembly 21, and can be connected to the support assembly 21 by snap-fit, magnetic attraction, or other means. When the connector 22 moves toward the inside of the housing 10, it can detach from the support assembly 21; when the connector 22 moves toward the outside of the housing 10, it can connect with the support assembly 21.

[0093] The following describes the process by which the display unit 23 switches from the state of being housed in the storage space to the display state.

[0094] With the display unit 23 housed in the accommodating space, the end of the display unit 23 is located outside the through hole. When a pulling force is applied to the display unit 23, the connector 22 moves outward toward the housing 10 along with the display unit 23. Figure 6B As shown, after the display unit 23 and the connector 22 move a certain distance, the connector 22 connects to the support assembly 21. A pulling force is continued to be applied to the display unit 23 until it is completely moved outside the housing 10. At this point, the display unit 23 is in a second state, in which it can be in a display state according to user needs. Figure 6C As shown, at this time, the display unit 23 is still in the first position posture, that is, the display unit 23 is perpendicular to the first sidewall 11. Figure 6D and 6E As shown, a rotational motion is applied to the display unit 23, causing it to rotate from a first position to a second position. In the second position, the display unit 23 can be parallel to the first sidewall 11 or at a preset angle to it. In the second position, the angle between the display unit 23 and the first sidewall 11 is not specifically limited; it is sufficient to allow the user to easily view the information on the display unit 23.

[0095] After the display unit 23 rotates from the first position to the second position, a pushing force can be applied to the display unit 23, causing the connector 22 to move along the through hole toward the inside of the housing 10 until the display unit 23 abuts against the first sidewall 11. It is understood that when the display unit 23 abuts against the first sidewall 11, the display screen of the display unit 23 faces the user.

[0096] Understandably, with the entire display unit 23 located on the outside of the housing 10, at least a portion of the connector 22 is located at the through hole, so that the display unit 23 can be quickly aligned with the through hole when stored.

[0097] The following describes the process by which the display unit 23 switches from the display state to the state of being stored in the accommodating space.

[0098] A pulling force is applied to the display unit 23, causing the connector 22 to move a distance along the through hole toward the outside of the housing 10, creating a space between the first sidewall 11 and the display unit 23 suitable for rotation. A rotational motion is applied to the display unit 23, causing it to rotate from a second position to a first position. Then, a pushing force is applied to the display unit 23, causing the connector 22 to move along the through hole toward the inside of the housing 10. After moving a distance, the connector 22 separates from the support assembly 21. Since the connector 22 is no longer in contact with the support assembly 21, a pushing force is continued to be applied to the display unit 23 until it is completely housed within the receiving space.

[0099] When the display unit 23 moves to the outside of the housing 10 and the connector 22 is connected to the support assembly 21, a rotational motion is applied to the display unit 23, and the display unit 23 can switch between a first position posture and a second position posture. The connector 22 provides a support point for the rotation of the display unit 23, so that the display unit 23 can switch between the two position postures stably and smoothly.

[0100] When the display unit 23 is in a non-display state, as the display unit 23 and the connector 22 move toward the inside of the housing 10, after the connector 22 separates from the support assembly 21, it continues to apply a pushing force to the display unit 23. Under a small external force, the display unit 23 can move into the accommodating space.

[0101] In this embodiment, one end of the connector 22 is movably connected to the display unit 23, so that when the display unit 23 is moved to the outside of the housing 10, it can smoothly and easily switch between the first position posture and the second position posture; the other end of the connector 22 is detachably connected to the support component 21. In the connected state, it guides the display unit 23 to move toward the outside or inside of the housing 10, and in the detached state, it realizes the storage of the display unit 23.

[0102] In embodiments of this disclosure, such as Figure 5 , Figures 6A to 6F As shown, the support assembly 21 includes a fixed member 211 and a movable member 212. The fixed member 211 is connected to the housing 10; the movable member 212 is movably connected to the fixed member 211 and is detachably connected to the connecting member 22. When the display unit 23 moves outward toward the through hole, the connecting member 22 can connect to the movable member 212; when the display unit 23 moves inward toward the through hole, the connecting member 22 can detach from the movable member 212.

[0103] For example, the fastener 211 is installed on a support frame inside the housing 10. The fastener 211 can be a square frame structure assembled from multiple plate-like bodies, and the square frame structure is enclosed by a top plate, a bottom plate, and side plates. Along the length direction of the fastener 211, the two ends of the fastener 211 are defined as a first end and a second end, respectively. The first end is away from the first side wall 11, and the second end is close to the first side wall 11.

[0104] In some embodiments, the movable member 212 is sandwiched between the top plate and the bottom plate. The movable member 212 can be slidably connected to the fixed member 211 via a sliding structure, and the movable member 212 can be detachably connected to the connecting member 22 via a snap-fit ​​structure. Along the length direction of the fixed member 211, the movable member 212 can move between a first limit position and a second limit position. The first limit position is close to the first end of the fixed member 211, and the second limit position is close to or located at the second end of the fixed member 211. Figure 6B As shown, when the movable part 212 is at its first extreme position, the display unit 23 continues to move outward toward the outer side of the housing 10, and the connecting part 22 is connected to the movable part 212; when the movable part 212 is at its first extreme position, the display unit 23 continues to move inward toward the inner side of the housing 10, and the connecting part 22 separates from the movable part 212. Figure 6C As shown, the movable part 212 is located at the second extreme position, and the display unit 23 is completely located outside the housing 10.

[0105] When an external force is applied to the display unit 23, the display unit 23 moves toward the outside of the through hole. With most of the display unit 23 located outside the housing 10, the connector 22 connects to the movable member 212. As the display unit 23 and the connector 22 continue to move toward the outside of the housing 10, the movable member 212 moves along the fixed member 211, guiding the display unit 23 and the connector 22 to move smoothly toward the outside of the housing 10.

[0106] As the display unit 23 and the connector 22 move toward the interior of the housing 10, the movable member 212 moves along the fixed member 211, guiding the display unit 23 and the connector 22 to move smoothly toward the interior of the housing 10. The connector 22 separates from the movable member 212 and continues to apply a pushing force to the display unit 23, pushing the display unit 23 into the receiving space.

[0107] In this embodiment, the fixing member 211 provides stable support for the display module 20, ensuring that the display module 20 can be stably housed in the accommodating space. The movable member 212 is movably connected to the fixing member 211 and can be detachably connected to the connecting member 22. The movable member 212 moves along the length direction of the fixing member 211, which can guide the display unit 23 to move smoothly out of or into the accommodating space.

[0108] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the display module 20 further includes a connecting frame 25, which is connected to the fixing member 211. The connecting frame 25 can be connected to the side plate of the fixing member 211 by means of snap-fit, screw-fit, welding, etc. The connecting frame 25 can be snapped into the support frame inside the housing 10 by snap-fit. After the connecting frame 25 and the fixing member 211 are assembled, the connecting frame 25 is then snapped into the housing 10, which facilitates the assembly of the display module 20.

[0109] In embodiments of this disclosure, such as Figure 5 , Figures 6A to 6F As shown, the support assembly 21 also includes an elastic connector 213. One end of the elastic connector 213 is connected to the fixed member 211, and the other end of the elastic connector 213 is connected to the movable member 212. When the connector 22 and the movable member 212 are connected, the elastic connector 213 causes the movable member 212 to be in a first stressed state, and the display unit 23 is adapted to switch between a first position posture and a second position posture. When the display unit 23 switches to the second position posture, the elastic connector 213 causes the movable member 212 to be in a second stressed state, so that the display unit 23 abuts against the outer wall surface of the housing 10.

[0110] In some embodiments, the elastic connector 213 includes a tension spring. The first end of the fixing member 211 is provided with a first hook portion, and the side of the movable member 212 near the first end is provided with a second hook portion. The first hook portion and the second hook portion correspond to each other. One end of the tension spring is hooked to the first hook portion, and the other end of the tension spring is hooked to the second hook portion.

[0111] like Figure 6A and Figure 6B As shown, when the movable part 212 is in the first extreme position, the tension spring is in its initial state, that is, the length of the tension spring is its original length. Figures 6C to 6F As shown, during the movement of the movable part 212 between the first limit position and the second limit position, the tension spring is in a tension state.

[0112] The following describes the process of moving the display unit 23 toward the outside of the housing 10 and fixing the display unit 23 to the outer wall of the housing 10.

[0113] As the display unit 23 moves outward toward the outer side of the housing 10, after moving a certain distance, the movable part 212 connects with the connecting part 22. The display unit 23 continues to move outward toward the outer side of the housing 10, and the movable part 212 and the connecting part 22 move synchronously with the display unit 23. Figure 6B and Figure 6C As shown, during the movement of the movable part 212 from the first extreme position to the second extreme position, the tension spring is in a tensile state, and the movable part 212 is subjected to the reverse tension of the tension spring, which is conducive to the smooth movement of the movable part 212 along the fixed part 211, and thus facilitates the smooth movement of the display unit 23 and the connecting part 22 toward the outside of the housing 10.

[0114] When the movable part 212 moves to its second extreme position, the display unit 23 is completely located outside the housing 10. At this time, the movable part 212 is in the first stress state, and the reverse pulling force on the movable part 212 is transmitted to the connector 22 and the display unit 23. Figure 6C , Figure 6D and Figure 6E As shown, under this stress state, it is beneficial to improve the user's feel by applying a rotational motion to the display unit 23, allowing the display unit 23 to smoothly switch from the first position posture to the second position posture. During the process of the moving part 212 moving from the first extreme position to the second extreme position, the tension spring stores energy.

[0115] After the display unit 23 rotates to the second position, it becomes parallel to the first sidewall 11. Releasing the display unit 23 removes the external force applied to it, and part of the energy stored in the tension spring is released. Figure 6FAs shown, the tension spring drives the movable member 212 from the second extreme position to the third extreme position. The movable member 212 drives the connecting member 22 to move towards the inside of the through hole until the display unit 23 abuts against the outer wall surface of the housing 10. For example, the display unit 23 abuts against the first side wall 11 of the housing 10. The third extreme position is located between the first extreme position and the second extreme position. The movable member 212 is located in the third extreme position and is in the second force state. The tension force on the movable member 212 in the second force state is less than the tension force on the movable member 212 in the first force state.

[0116] When the display unit 23 is in contact with the first side wall 11, the tension of the spring allows the display unit 23 to be stably adhered to the outer wall of the housing 10 without the need for other fixing methods to fix the display unit 23.

[0117] The following describes the process of storing the display unit 23.

[0118] A pulling force is applied to the display unit 23, causing the movable part 212 to move to the second extreme position. The movable part 212 is in a first stressed state, which improves the user's feel. A rotational motion is applied to the display unit 23, allowing it to smoothly switch from the second position to the first position. Once the display unit 23 has rotated to the second position, it is released, and the tension spring releases energy, moving the movable part 212 from the second extreme position to the first extreme position. When the movable part 212 reaches the first extreme position, a pushing force is applied to the display unit 23, separating it from the connecting part 22. The pushing force continues to be applied to the display unit 23 until it is completely retracted into the receiving space.

[0119] During the movement of the movable part 212 from the second extreme position to the first extreme position, no pushing force is required on the display unit 23, which helps reduce user operation. In addition, the reverse tension of the tension spring helps the movable part 212 move smoothly along the fixed part 211.

[0120] In this embodiment, during the movement of the movable part 212 between the first and second extreme positions, the reaction force applied by the elastic connector 213 to the movable part 212 facilitates the smooth movement of the movable part 212, which in turn facilitates the smooth movement of the display unit 23. The display unit 23 is located outside the housing 10, and the reverse pulling force provided by the elastic connector 213 facilitates the smooth switching of the display unit 23 between the first and second position postures. When the movable part 212 is located at the third extreme position, the pulling force provided by the elastic connector 213 enables the display unit 23 to be firmly attached to the outer wall surface of the housing 10. During the storage process, the rebound force of the elastic connector 213 helps to reduce the user's operating actions.

[0121] In embodiments of this disclosure, such as Figure 5 , Figures 6A to 6F As shown, the fixing member 211 includes a fixing part 2111 and a guide part 2112, with the guide part 2112 connected to the fixing part 2111. The guide part 2112 is provided with a first guide groove 21121, and the display unit 23 is slidably disposed in the first guide groove 21121. The display unit 23 can slide along the first guide groove 21121 to move toward the outside or inside of the through hole.

[0122] In some embodiments, the fastener 211 includes a top plate, a bottom plate, and a side plate. The side plate is a fixing part 2111 of the fastener 211, used to fix the fastener 211 to the support frame inside the housing 10. The top plate and the bottom plate are guide parts 2112 of the fastener 211, that is, the guide part 2112 includes the top plate and the bottom plate. The inner wall surface of the top plate and the inner wall surface of the bottom plate are both constructed with a first guide groove 21121, and the first guide groove 21121 on the top plate corresponds to the first guide groove 21121 on the bottom plate. The cross-sectional shape of the first guide groove 21121 is U-shaped. The width of the first guide groove 21121 is adapted to the thickness of the display unit 23. A portion of the display unit 23 is located in the first guide groove 21121 of the top plate, and a portion of the display unit 23 is located in the first guide groove 21121 of the bottom plate.

[0123] During the movement of the display unit 23 toward the outside or inside of the through hole, the first guide groove 21121 effectively guides the display unit 23, which is beneficial to the smooth movement of the display unit 23.

[0124] In embodiments of this disclosure, such as Figures 6A to 6F As shown, the guide portion 2112 is provided with a second guide groove 21122, the extension direction of which is parallel to the extension direction of the first guide groove 21121. The movable member 212 includes a sliding portion 2121 and a connecting portion 2122. The sliding portion 2121 is slidably disposed in the second guide groove 21122. One end of the connecting portion 2122 is connected to the sliding portion 2121, and the other end is detachably connected to the connecting member 22. One of the fixing member 211 and the housing 10 is provided with a stop portion. The sliding portion 2121 slides to the end of the second guide groove 21122, and the sliding portion 2121 abuts against the stop portion.

[0125] In some embodiments, the movable member 212 includes a sliding portion 2121 and a connecting portion 2122. The sliding portion 2121 is slidably connected to the fixing member 211, and the connecting portion 2122 is used to connect the sliding portion 2121 and the connecting member 2122. Both the sliding portion 2121 and the connecting portion 2122 can be plate-shaped. Along the width direction of the fixing member 211, the width dimension of the connecting portion 2122 is smaller than the width dimension of the sliding portion 2121.

[0126] The guide section 2112 includes a top plate and a bottom plate. The inner wall surface of the top plate and the inner wall surface of the bottom edge are both formed with second guide grooves 21122. A portion of the sliding section 2121 is located in the second guide groove 21122 of the top plate, and a portion of the sliding section 2121 is located in the second guide groove 21122 of the bottom plate. The second guide groove 21122 and the first guide groove 21121 are arranged sequentially along the thickness direction of the fixing member 211.

[0127] During the movement of the movable part 212 between the first limit position and the second limit position, the sliding part 2121 slides along the second guide groove 21122, which is beneficial to the smoothness and stability of the movement of the movable part 212.

[0128] One end of the connecting part 2122 is connected to the sliding part 2121. The connecting part 2122 can be integrally formed with the sliding part 2121, or the connecting part 2122 can be connected to the sliding part 2121 by welding, snap-fitting, screwing, or other methods. The other end of the connecting part 2122 can be detachably connected to the connecting member 22.

[0129] One of the fastener 211 and the housing 10 is provided with a stop portion. In one embodiment, the end of the fastener 211 facing the first sidewall 11 has a stop portion, and the stop portion is opposite to the second guide groove 21122. In another embodiment, a stop portion is formed inside the housing 10 near the end of the second guide groove 21122, and the stop portion is opposite to the second guide groove 21122.

[0130] The display unit 23 and the connector 22 move toward the outside of the housing 10 until the other end of the connector 22 moves to the through hole. At this time, the sliding part 2121 slides to the end of the second guide groove 21122 and abuts against the stop part to prevent the sliding part 2121 from moving further, thereby preventing the connector 22 from moving completely to the outside of the through hole. If the connector 22 moves completely to the outside of the through hole, the connecting part 2122 of the movable part 212 is located at the through hole. Since the size of the connecting part 2122 is much smaller than the size of the through hole, the display unit 23 is prone to shaking during the rotation process applied to the display unit 23.

[0131] The sliding part 2121 slides until it abuts against the stop part. At this time, the other end of the connecting member 22 is located at the through hole. The cross-sectional dimension of the other end of the connecting member 22 matches the dimension of the through hole. A part of the surface of the connecting member 22 forms a surface contact with the hole wall surface of the through hole, which can effectively prevent the display unit 23 from shaking during rotation. In addition, after the display unit 23 switches from the second position posture to the first position posture, it is beneficial for the display unit 23 to quickly align with the through hole.

[0132] In this embodiment, the sliding part 2121 of the movable part 212 slides along the second guide groove 21122, which is beneficial to the smooth movement of the movable part 212. When the sliding part 2121 slides to the end of the second guide groove 21122, the sliding part 2121 abuts against the stop part, preventing the connector 22 from moving completely outside the housing 10. At least part of the connector 22 is located at the through hole, which is beneficial to provide stable support for the display unit 23, and at the same time, it is beneficial to quickly align the display unit 23 with the through hole during the storage process, which is convenient for storage.

[0133] In embodiments of this disclosure, such as Figure 6E and Figure 6F As shown, the display unit 23 includes a bracket 231 and a display screen 232 disposed on one side of the bracket 231. One end of the connector 22 is connected to the side of the bracket 231 opposite to the display screen 232 via a rotating structure, allowing the display unit 23 to rotate about the axis of the rotating structure to switch between a first position and a second position. Figure 6A and Figure 6B As shown, the other end of the connector 22 is provided with a first hook 221, and the end of the connecting part 2122 away from the sliding part 2121 is provided with a second hook 21221 that is adapted to the first hook 221. When the display unit 23 slides along the first guide groove 21121, the first hook 221 and the second hook 21221 can be engaged or disengaged.

[0134] The display unit 23 includes a bracket 231 and a display screen 232. The bracket 231 has a space for accommodating multiple components of the display module 20. The bracket 231 has a first side and a second side. The display screen 232 is located on the first side of the bracket 231, and a connector 22 is connected to the second side of the bracket 231. One end of the connector 22 is connected to the bracket 231 via a rotating structure, and the other end of the connector 22 is connected to the connecting portion 2122 of the movable member 212 via a snap-fit ​​structure.

[0135] In some embodiments, the connector 22 is plate-shaped, and the support 231 has a spindle on the side opposite to the display screen 232. One end of the connector 22 has two rotating connection parts with shaft holes, through which the spindle passes, thus realizing the rotatable connection between the connector 22 and the support 231. Applying a rotational action to the display unit 23 allows the display unit 23 to rotate around the axis of the shaft hole, thereby conveniently switching the display unit 23 between a first position posture and a second position posture.

[0136] In some embodiments, one end of the connector 22 is provided with a spindle, and the bracket 231 is provided with a shaft hole on the side opposite to the display screen 232. The two shaft holes are arranged opposite to each other, and the two ends of the spindle are connected to the two shaft holes one by one. Applying a rotational action to the display unit 23 allows the display unit 23 to rotate around the axis of the spindle, thereby conveniently realizing the switching of the display unit 23 between a first position posture and a second position posture.

[0137] Optionally, the bracket 231 has a recessed groove on the side opposite to the display screen 232. The groove has two opposing groove walls and a groove bottom surface, and the groove depth is similar to the thickness of the connector 22. When the display unit 23 is in the first position posture, one surface of the connector 22 is in contact with the groove bottom surface, or one surface of the connector 22 is close to the groove bottom surface. This helps to reduce the overall thickness of the connector 22 and the display unit 23, thereby facilitating the miniaturization of the display module 20.

[0138] In some embodiments, the other end of the connector 22 is provided with a first hook 221, which is approximately U-shaped. The end of the connecting portion 2122 away from the sliding portion 2121 is bent in the direction toward the sliding portion 2121 to form a second hook 21221, which is also approximately U-shaped. The first hook 221 and the second hook 21221 are adapted to each other; that is, after the first hook 221 and the second hook 21221 are engaged, at least a portion of the first hook 221 is located in the groove of the second hook 21221, and at least a portion of the second hook 21221 is located in the groove of the first hook 221.

[0139] A pulling force is applied to the display unit 23, and the display unit 23 moves towards the outside of the housing 10 along the first guide groove 21121. As the display unit 23 moves, the first hook 221 gradually approaches the second hook 21221 until the end of the first hook 221 abuts against the hook groove of the second hook 21221, and the end of the second hook 21221 abuts against the hook groove of the first hook 221, thereby realizing the engagement of the first hook 221 and the second hook 21221.

[0140] A thrust is applied to the display unit 23, and the display unit 23 moves toward the inside of the housing 10 along the second guide groove 21122. As the display unit 23 moves, the end of the first hook 221 can be easily separated from the hook groove of the second hook 21221, thereby realizing the separation of the first hook 221 and the second hook 21221.

[0141] The other end of the connector 22 is connected to the connecting part 2122 of the movable part 212 via a snap-fit ​​structure. The display unit 23 moves toward the outside of the housing 10, and the first hook 221 and the second hook 21221 snap into each other, which can quickly connect the connector 22 and the connecting part 2122. The display unit 23 moves toward the inside of the housing 10, and the first hook 221 and the second hook 21221 can quickly separate, which can conveniently separate the connector 22 and the connecting part 2122.

[0142] In this embodiment, one end of the connector 22 is connected to the bracket 231 of the display unit 23 via a rotating structure, which facilitates the flexible switching of the display unit 23 between the first position posture and the second position posture; the other end of the connector 22 is detachably connected to the connecting part 2122 via a snap-fit ​​structure, which facilitates the convenient connection or separation of the connector 22 and the connecting part 2122.

[0143] In embodiments of this disclosure, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the display module 20 also includes a locking structure 24, which includes a first part 241 and a second part 242. One of the first part 241 and the second part 242 is disposed on the fixing member 211, and the other is disposed on the connecting member 22. Under the action of external force, the first part 241 can be connected to the second part 242 to lock the display unit 23. Under the action of external force, the first part 241 can be separated from the second part 242 to unlock the display unit 23.

[0144] In some embodiments, the locking structure 24 includes a push-locking structure. The locking structure 24 includes a first part 241 and a second part 242 that can lock each other. For example, the first part 241 is a lock body and the second part 242 is a bolt. The lock body is provided with a slot that is inserted into the bolt for cooperating with the bolt to achieve locking and unlocking.

[0145] In one embodiment, the fastener 211 further includes an end panel located at a first end of the fastener 211. The lock body is mounted on the end panel, with the slot facing the display unit 23 and the connector 22; the latch is mounted on the other end of the connector 22, opposite to the lock body.

[0146] In one embodiment, the fastener 211 further includes an end panel located at a first end of the fastener 211. The lock body is mounted on the other end of the connector 22, with the slot facing the end panel; the latch is mounted on the end panel, opposite to the lock body.

[0147] Most of the display unit 23 moves to the inside of the housing 10. When the display unit 23 is pressed, the locking tongue is inserted into the slot of the lock body, locking the connector 22 and the fixing member 211, thus locking the display unit 23. The display unit 23 is locked within the accommodating space, and will not move out of the through hole if the housing shakes.

[0148] Optionally, the display unit 23 is in a locked state, with the end face of the display unit 23 flush with the outer wall of the first side wall 11. The display unit 23 is completely housed in the accommodating space of the cabinet 10, which is beneficial to the aesthetics of the cabinet and also helps to more effectively protect the display unit 23.

[0149] When the user needs to interact with the display unit 23, pressing the display unit 23 separates the latch from the slot, unlocking the connector 22 and the fixing member 211, thus putting the display unit 23 in the unlocked state. After the latch separates from the slot, a section of the display unit 23 pops out to the outside of the housing 10, making it easier for the user to pinch the end of the display unit 23 to apply pulling force, which improves the convenience of user operation.

[0150] In this embodiment, the fixing member 211 and the connecting member 22 are connected by the locking structure 24. When the display unit 23 is pressed, a portion of the display unit 23 can pop out to the outside of the housing 10, which is convenient for applying a pulling force to the display unit 23 and improves the ease of operation. When most of the display unit 23 moves to the inside of the housing 10, when the display unit 23 is pressed, the first part 241 and the second part 242 are locked, and the display unit 23 is in a locked state, which effectively prevents the display unit 23 from sliding out to the outside of the housing 10.

[0151] Figure 7A A schematic diagram illustrating the display unit, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, being fully housed within the housing; Figure 7B This schematic diagram illustrates a portion of the display unit ejected from the housing after being unlocked according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 7C A schematic diagram illustrating the movement of a display unit to the outside of a housing according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 7D A schematic diagram of a rotating display unit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown; Figure 7E This schematically illustrates a view of the display unit relative to the first sidewall when it is rotated to the second position posture according to an embodiment of the present disclosure; Figure 7F The diagram illustrates a display unit attached to the outer wall of a housing according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0152] The following describes the storage process of the display module 20 and the switching process of the position and orientation of the display unit 23 using a specific embodiment. The structure of the display module 20 is as described above, and the display module 20 includes a support component 21, a connector 22, and a display unit 23.

[0153] The support assembly 21 includes a fixing member 211 and a movable member 212. The fixing member 211 can be connected to the support frame inside the housing 10 by a snap-fit ​​connection. The fixing member 211 has a first guide groove 21121 and a second guide groove 21122 arranged in parallel. The display unit 23 is slidably disposed in the first guide groove 21121. The movable member 212 includes a sliding part 2121 and a connecting part 2122. The sliding part 2121 is slidably disposed in the second guide groove 21122 and is connected to the first end of the fixing member 211 by an elastic connector 213. One end of the connector 22 is connected to the bracket 231 of the display unit 23 by a rotating structure, and the other end of the connector 22 is detachably connected to the connecting part 2122 of the movable member 212 by a snap-fit ​​connection. The other end of the connector 22 is connected to the first end of the fixing member 211 by a locking structure 24. By pressing the display unit 23, the connector 22 and the fixing member 211 can be locked or unlocked.

[0154] The following provides a detailed description of the process by which the display unit 23 switches from being housed within the storage space to being displayed.

[0155] like Figure 7A As shown, pressing the display unit 23 separates the bolt and lock body of the locking structure 24, that is, the connecting piece 22 and the fixing piece 211 separate. Figure 7B As shown, a portion of the display unit 23 pops out onto the outside of the housing 10. (As indicated...) Figure 7C As shown, a pulling force is applied to the display unit 23, and the display unit 23 moves toward the outside of the housing 10 along the extension direction of the through hole. As the display unit 23 continues to move, the first hook 221 of the connector 22 engages with the second hook 21221 of the movable member 212, and the movable member 212 moves toward the outside of the housing 10 together with the display unit 23.

[0156] like Figure 6B and Figure 6C As shown, the movable part 212 moves from the first limit position to the second limit position along the second guide groove 21122, the sliding part 2121 abuts against the stop part, the elastic connector 213 is in the first force state, storing energy, and the display unit 23 is located on the outside of the housing 10. Figure 6D and Figure 7D As shown, a rotation motion is applied to the display unit 23, causing the display unit 23 to switch from a first position posture to a second position posture. Figure 6E and Figure 7EAs shown, the display unit 23 switches from a posture perpendicular to the first sidewall 11 to a posture parallel to the first sidewall 11. Figure 6F and Figure 7F As shown, when the display unit 23 is released, under the action of the elastic force of the elastic connector 213, the movable part 212 moves from the second limit position to the third limit position along the second guide groove 21122. The display unit 23 abuts against the first side wall 11, and the elastic connector 213 is in the second force state. The elastic force of the elastic connector 213 enables the display unit 23 to be stably attached to the outer wall surface of the first side wall 11.

[0157] When the display unit 23 is attached to the outer wall surface of the first side wall 11, the display unit 23 is in the display state, and the user can interact with the display unit 23. The display unit 23 can display weather forecasts, maps, news information, etc., according to the user's usage needs. The display unit 23 can also play videos, audio, etc., to meet the diverse usage needs of the user.

[0158] The following provides a detailed description of the process by which the display unit 23 switches from the display state to being stored inside the housing 10. The storage process of the display unit 23 can be found in [reference needed]. Figures 7A to 7F The operation steps are performed in reverse.

[0159] The display unit 23 is in the display state. When a pulling force is applied to the display unit 23, it moves a certain distance away from the first sidewall 11, creating a space between the first sidewall 11 and the display unit 23 suitable for rotation. When a rotational motion is applied to the display unit 23, it rotates around the axis of the rotating structure, switching from the second position to the first position. At this point, the display unit 23 is released, and under the restoring force of the elastic connector 213, the movable member 212 moves from the second limit position to the first limit position. The elastic connector 213 returns to its natural length, and the movable member 212 drives the connector 22 and the display unit 23 to move a certain distance towards the inside of the housing 10.

[0160] Then, a pushing force is applied to the display unit 23, causing the first latch 221 and the second latch 21221 to separate. The display unit 23 continues to move towards the inside of the housing 10 until most of the display unit 23 is inside the housing 10. Pressing the display unit 23 locks the latch and lock body, completely retracting the display unit 23 into the receiving space. Furthermore, the locking structure 24 locks the display unit 23 into a locked state. Thus, the display unit 23 is completely retracted into the receiving space.

[0161] As described above, the first guide groove 21121 and the second guide groove 21122 constructed on the fixing member 211 facilitate the smooth movement of the movable member 212 and the display unit 23. The movable member 212 is connected to the fixing member 211 through the elastic connector 213. During the movement of the movable member 212 along the second guide groove 21122, the reverse tension of the elastic connector 213 facilitates the smooth movement of the movable member 212, which in turn facilitates the smooth movement of the display unit 23. In addition, the reverse tension of the elastic connector 213 on the movable member 212 enables the display unit 23 to stably switch between the first position posture and the second position posture, and the rebound force of the elastic connector 213 enables the display unit 23 to stably adhere to the outer wall surface of the first side wall 11. The movable member 212 and the connector 22 are connected by a snap-fit ​​structure, which facilitates the easy snap-fitting or separation of the movable member 212 and the connector 22. A locking structure 24 is provided between the connector 22 and the fixing member 211. When the display unit 23 is pressed, the latch and the lock body are unlocked, and a section of the display unit 23 pops out to the outside of the enclosure 10, which is beneficial to the convenience of user operation. When the display unit 23 is pressed, the latch and the lock body are locked, and the display unit 23 is completely stored in the accommodating space and the display unit 23 is in a locked state, which not only improves the aesthetics of the enclosure, but also effectively protects the display unit 23.
